Abstract

An illustrative method includes identifying, based on static workload data associated with a compute environment, one or more attack paths from a network to one or more datasets associated with an entity, accessing runtime workload data associated with the compute environment, and performing, based on the runtime workload data, a risk mitigation operation associated with the one or more attack paths.
